To help celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week 2016, the Milwaukee Brewers invited Milwaukee teacher – and Wisconsin’s 2015 Elementary School Teacher of the Year – Mai Shoua Xiong to throw out the first pitch at Miller Park.

Mai, who is a member of WEAC and the Milwaukee Teachers’ Education Association (MTEA), did an amazing job!

Thanks, Mai, for all you do! And thanks to all the great educators in Wisconsin public schools!
